Very similar to Bug 19531 . Basically, Vector changes the portlet structure of the html, thus making the javascript function addPortletLink() not work as expected in some cases. Perhaps there should be some special case code in the function to make it compatible with vector in so much that it would behave in the way most closey to that as it would on monobook.

For example if in vector, addPortletLink() should do the following:
 if the portlet id is namespaces or views it should wrap the new portlet link in a span
 if on vector, and portlet id is 'p-personal' it should make it go to the id 'personal'
 if on vector, and portlet id is 'p-cactions' it should make it go to id 'actions' (as thats the closest)

Modifying the function from wikibits as follows would accomplish that:

function addPortletLink(portlet, href, text, id, tooltip, accesskey, nextnode) {
        var wrapSpan = false; //default
        if (skin === "vector") {
            if (portlet === "namespaces"  || portlet === "views") {
                wrapSpan = true;
            }
            else if (portlet === 'p-personal') {
                portlet = 'personal';
            }
            else if (portlet === 'p-cactions') {
                portlet = 'actions';
            }
        
        }
	var node = document.getElementById(portlet);
	if ( !node ) return null;
	node = node.getElementsByTagName( "ul" )[0];
	if ( !node ) return null;

	var link = document.createElement( "a" );
        var linkText;
        if (wrapSpan) {
        linkText = document.createElement('span');
	linkText.appendChild( document.createTextNode( text ) );
        } else {
        linkText = document.createTextNode( text );
        }

	link.appendChild( linkText );
	link.href = href;

	var item = document.createElement( "li" );
	item.appendChild( link );

	if ( id ) item.id = id;

	if ( accesskey ) {
		link.setAttribute( "accesskey", accesskey );
		tooltip += " ["+accesskey+"]";
	}
	if ( tooltip ) {
		link.setAttribute( "title", tooltip );
	}
	if ( accesskey && tooltip ) {
		updateTooltipAccessKeys( new Array( link ) );
	}

	if ( nextnode && nextnode.parentNode == node )
		node.insertBefore( item, nextnode );
	else
		node.appendChild( item );  // IE compatibility (?) 

	return item;
}
